Why cut the guy this early? And weren't the Packers pretty shabby in the secondary last year?

This has been a thing for them since before training camp. I believe he asked to be traded. Not sure what the deal is or why but this isn’t something brand new.

One of those players was safety Josh Jones, who saw the Packers sign Adrian Amos to a big-money deal in free-agency and then move up in the draft to select former Maryland safety Darnell Savage. Jones appeared to be in line for a significantly reduced workload in the 2019 season, and he reportedly asked the Packers for a trade. Instead, they informed him of his release.

Now a free agent at age 24, Jones should have a number of suitors between now and the beginning of the season. Any team that needs safety help could look his way, especially given that he has played both free and strong safety, as well as a hybrid linebacker type of role for Green Bay.

    • i think i go in the opposite direction of most. my ideal retirement is living in some old downtown area in a flat above some shop or something.  life out in the country was just something i got real tired of. My kids actually miss some of living out there, which i understand. that was where they grew up for the most part. 40 acres with a 2.5 acre pond. it was beautiful, but also way too much (and too expensive) for me to keep up with. 
    • FLASHBACK: I remember back when ESPN was just starting--he was their anchor.  They used to show stuff like Rodeo and field hockey--I remember laughing when he went to a commercial mocking a cycling competition in Utah (or something similar--I made that up) and I laughed.  I told my dad, "We may have us a new anchor when we get back from commercial."  When they came back from commercial, Berman was looking very serious and he said, "Any comments by me do not reflect the views of ESPN....The men and women who cycle are dedicated athletes and we are honored to shine light on their sport." (Paraphrasing).  Dad laughed hysterically. My first memory of him--and that was like 1980.
    • Might not have a team without them. Although that probably applies to the Panthers, too.
